Is there a difference between Infrared QUATRZ Heaters & 6 or 8 Element infrared Heaters ?

All types of electric space heaters convert electrical energy into heat. Ceramic and quartz heaters distribute their heat by convection, which heats the air and circulates it around the room. Infrared heaters transfer thermal energy via electromagnetic waves, which are absorbed by people and objects in their path, creating warmth.Read more : http://www.ehow.com/about_5348342_infrared-versus-quartz-ceramic-heaters.html

Those are the Kelvin Ratings. The 6000k is usually the most popular. The higher you go in the Kelvin Rating, you get more color in the light in exchange for visibility. So 6000k will be just slightly brighter than 8000k and 8000k will be slightly brighter than 10000k and so on but they will have more and more color to them. Its completely up to your preference on which one you choose. Hope that helps.

If you have 220 for the base board heaters like I do.....it will be much less with the supplement used and the elc. heat turned off. Depends how cold it gets where you live and how much you use it.....:)

Understanding how the heater works: the infrared heats solid materials such as walls, carpets, or skin, which in turn warms up the environment. The constant motion you describe would mean that the infrared is not focused long enough on an object to heat it up. This idea would work much better (though much less safely) with a coil heater, kerosene heater, or something else that was designed to heat the air.

My experience has been that the heater is inadequate for an 8' by 10' room. Don't bother with this model.

Manufacturer infrared resource sells plug ins. But watch the price -- it is probably cheaper to just bay a 3 or 4 emitter set up to start.

Hello there! This heater has one heating chamber that contains two commercial grade 14" wrapped quartz infrared elements.

Plug is standard 120 v three prong Hot/Neutral/ground I do not now the difference between quarts and infrared. I do know this heater I have will not heat more then a 4000 cubic ft of space and maintain 86 degrees. Also the fan is extremely loud.

It all depends on the wattage. If the dish is also only 600W, it will cost the same. However, if the heater has higher watts or has a blower (fan), then Cozy-Heater will be cheaper to run.

Our unit is the RHD800 and have been very happy with its operation. In reading the info on HDR565 appears the only difference, other than color, is the lack of bun warmer. If funds are an object I would go with the 565. The bun warmer on the 800 is ok but no great thing. Also, I have seen prices from $21 to $75 for both these units. Amazon has best price. We have been happy with how dogs are cooked. Keep in mind when the info says 8 dogs at a time, they mean 8 regular not longs. Hope this was helpful.

In order to give you a correct answer I would need to know the brand. Also do you need the 6" or the 8" element?

Well, basically you are correct about 4 element vs 6 element heater. Either way don't run them 24 hours a day, it will cost you a lot a money. Last year I ran it 24 hours a day for the winter and my bill was $700 bucks for two months . Here is a tip if you buy one, when you turn it on set it for 3 or for degrees higher than what you want it then set temp 2 or 3 degrees lower. Good luck

This is an excellent heating unit and uses infrared and ceramic coils to heat an area. It does not dry the air out like traditional heaters. As far as I know it is not a humidifier, just a heater with different fan speeds and auto cut-off. Great space heater.

The 50w model was designed for 6.6-15.8g aquariums. The full list of their heaters is listed here: https://www.eheim.com/resources/product//450/downloads/11/EHEIM_aquarium_heater_25_-_300_manual.pdf

Answer--The 6.0 has a 6" woofer and less power, The 8.0 has a 8" woofer and has 2 more power drivers on the bar and around 400 Watts including the sub woofer total power the 8.0 is by far the premium choice.....Happy Shopping...

Since I never owned the 6 or 4 I can't answer that one. Suggest you compare the units and choose one, personal preference.

The 9 seer unit will use about 50% more energy than the 16 SEER unit. Basically a 9 SEER unit will consume 1 KW of energy while removing 9,000 Btu's of heat. A 16 SEER unit will remove 16,000 Btu's of heat with that same KW of power. So about 50% less KW is required by the 16 SEER system.If your system is a little low on freon, or has a very dirty evaporator, then you might not be getting 9 SEER, but might be getting 8 SEER. So you might save 1/2 of the electricity that you are consuming now. Brand name does not matter to much when replacing a unit..
